Well, you are seeing it from the "wrong side"; you maintain a myspell-spellchecker enabled application and thinking from that side (I do, too). But what I am currently doing is thinking from the perspective of the myspell-* dictionary packages for which it makes sense to recommend the myspell-spellchecking-featured applications as much as the ispell dictionaries depend on ispell. A Depends is superfluous here since it then would install all 4 big packages which can't be the sense ;) Don't you think? Grüße/Regards, René -- .''`.
